Yeah, yeah, yeah. I'm glad the President is cool with the LGBT constituency. I'm glad he thinks government is a useful tool for the promotion of civilization. I'm glad he thinks climate change is an important problem, and is willing to say so to the TV cameras even though Exxon Mobil dropped a quarter mil into his inaugural kitty.

Why would he want to repeal and restrict things he's using to full advantage in ways Bush II and Cheney could only dream about?
